taboo

i've often been told (by the older folks that is) that there are some things u cant say in front of a baby, for eg, that they've put on weight or how well-behaved they are, or they will just stop doing that.

i never really believed it cos it sounds like old wives' tales right? i mean, where's the scientific reason in that?!

well then, last nite emma proved that it may very well be true what i've been told, cos the moment i said "altho she is extremely difficult during the day, at least she sleeps well during the nite and i can get a break", she goes and wakes up 3 times last nite. sigh. PLEEEEEEASE dont let this happen again tonite!

i really just ought to zip my mouth sometimes and listen to well-meaning folks and their logic-defying tales.
